Forever Rose

At the prom he gave one red Rose,
For as the love in his eyes shows,
He desired everyone should know,
This is the Lass he will not let go.

He never wanted to leave her side,
They had a love neither could hide,
She was the rose of his heart,
They vowed they would never part.

She was his own sweet sixteen,
The prettiest thing he'd ever seen,
His best friend and sole sweetheart,
Surely Heaven's finest work of art.

Then tragedy took them far away,
Back home forever both to stay,
As late September's roses died,
They were laid together side by side.

Heaven welcomed with open arms,
These newlyweds,safe from harm,
This young man that she chose
And she his only Forever Rose.
